Those are two talents I think are rare in the same person. Finding good talent is one skill, being able to let them put their talent to use seems to be another skill entirely for some reason. Lots of people seem to hire the right person but can't delegate, or delegate well but can't get the right people.
Being good at both gets back to the Bill Parcells line about 'if they want me to cook the dinner they should let me pick the groceries' and the debate of whether its better to have a coach/GM or a coach and a GM.
